Merry Christmas

Recalling some sweet moments this December - MyGirl at her dad's company work party, wearing the new sweater she bought. 

MyGirl was invited to attend the Nutcracker with another family from church.

 The music was in her heart, and she had to dance like a ballerina all through the house when she got home.  She is so precious to me!

One of the best activities we participated in, helping put on the Ronald McDonald House Christmas Party. Here my boy is leading the caroling. In spite of his trials, he still looks for opportunities to serve. So Love him for his good heart!

Cowgirl is home and we are SOOOO happy to have her here! Here she is on the way to the gym with her dad. Love the shoes, love the woman, and she just gives so much love back.  How I love her!

 MyMike at work, in his new lab, with his radar behind him.  What a challenging and amazing year he has had. The success of his project has changed the future of his company. But work aside, I truly think this has been our best year ever! We've gotten to spend more time together since Thanksgiving than any year before. Love that!!! His musical website,  http://home.comcast.net/~mksummerhays/     is fun to listen to. Its the music of his heart, though sadly, he hasn't had much time this year to compose anything new.

Fun to have my parents home and to spend time with them and sit with them at church. Makes the holidays more merrier with extended family, that's for sure! My friend here told me before she left, how blessed I am to have the two of them for my parents. Couldn't agree more!

 LittleBuddy after receiving his gift from Santa. Its fun to have him be all that a cool teenager is and still be a sweet boy and excited for the holidays. Its just so fun that tomorrow is Christmas! Looking forward to seeing his face tomorrow morning and having more fun together. Tonight at Mom's, tomorrow here. We've already had some Rook marathons going. Feels like time for some Dalmuti too. He's already asked me twice if he can help make the Christmas Trifle. Love spending time with him too.

So, from our house to yours, Merry, Merry Christmas!
